An unforgettable tour filled with awe and wonder
The safari trip with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club was excellent. They responded quickly to my inquiry right from the start, and answered all my questions promptly. I was able to book with a reliable travel agency at a reasonable price. To my surprise, they even came to pick me up at the airport, even though I arrived the day before my safari, making it incredibly easy to get to my accommodation. Additionally, they kept their promises on time, and everything from the delicious food to the great accommodations was spot on. I can’t think of any reason not to recommend them.

Incredible Experience!
Having traveled all over the world, this trip ranks towards the top of our list for experiences. Booking was somewhat easy, although making payment(s) was a little tricky. Upon arrival, we were met at the airport exactly as planned, and rode for approximately 90 minutes to our hotel. The hotel itself was good, although it was not the usual 'premium' hotel that they normally use. In the morning, we met our guide (Gasper) who packed our bags into the safari vehicle, and then he offered to stop at a grocery store for snacks, since we would be on the road for several hours.
This safari package is different from the ones being offered in the South Africa region. We literally spent hours and hours in the vehicle, driving from one lodge to another, as we traversed the massive Serengetti region. Gasper was absolutely awesome! He afforded us SO many opportunities to see animals, everywhere we wen - and he went well above and beyond, every single day.
We were two couples in decent shape, yet we were always glad to be out of the vehicle at the end of each day. You will want to be prepared for long, dusty, and bumpy rides for the entire time. (We were there 7-8 days). You will have an opportunity to meet some very nice folks at each lodge - they are wonderful. Unfortunately, the busy itinerary does not allow enough time to really get to know them. However, the minimal amount of time spent with them (during meal time), is really enjoyable.
Pros:
* Abundant wildlife sightings
* Plenty of photo opportunities
* Great guide
Cons:
* Roads are super rough, and incredibly dusty (no fault of KASC)
* Safari vehicle is loud, rattles, no reclining seats (like others had) and windows did not fully open (Could use some maintenance)
*An error was made regarding an overnight lodge, so we were 'upgraded' to another lodge - which was substantially worse than the one that we had already booked. This was hard to understand, since we had our full itinerary months in advance.
Suggestions:
* Bring a buff/facemask to combat the dusty roads. This helps with the dust that seeps into the safari vehicle
* Quality binoculars are a must
* Consider bringing some school supplies to donate to a local school - such a rewarding experience!
* Add an additional night in Arusha upon arrival. It was nice to relax and catch up, after a very long flight.

Reliable, knowledgeable and trustworthy
We have had a fantastic time on our 5 days safari and everything has exceeded our expectations! Our safari guide, Eli, was extremely knowledgeable and did everything to make sure we have the best experience and we see all the animals we wanted.
Mary, our coordinator, was also super helpful, replied very quickly and amended the schedule to our needs. We also did a waterfall and hot springs excursion before our safari and the team at Kilimanjaro, was able to organize that beautifully as well.

Amazing experience with the best company and guide!
We had an incredible four-day safari guided by Jasper, and from the very first moment, we felt a great connection with him. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and always made sure we were comfortable and happy throughout the trip. Jasper shared fascinating information about the wildlife, the landscape, and the local culture, and his passion for nature made the experience even more special.
We were lucky to see all the animals we dreamed of — lions, elephants, giraffes, leopards, rhinos, and so many more — and Jasper always knew the best spots to find them. Every day was perfectly organized, and he made sure we had enough time to enjoy the views and take pictures without feeling rushed.
The entire experience was unforgettable, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Jasper truly made our safari adventure something we’ll remember for the rest of our lives. Highly recommended!

everything was great!
Our safari was incredible! From start to finish everything was taken care of the organization was smooth, the food was delicious, and the lodges were comfortable and welcoming. The highlight of the trip was that we managed to see the entire Big Five, something we’ll never forget! Our guide was not only very knowledgeable but also passionate about wildlife, which made every game drive exciting and fun. This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I can’t recommend this tour operator highly enough!

absolutely the best, our guide Eli is the best of the best
After coming back from the safari for a month, my heart still stays in Serengeti. The best part of the trip was (of course) the animals, but what made all the incredible sightings possible, was our wonderful wonderful guide Eli. I can't say enough good words about Eli, he is knowledgeable, he is dedicated, he is hardworking, he is all the good words you might find describing other wonderful guides as well, but he is more, and better. He found the perfect spots (and timing) to see the crossing (yes, we were able to saw it multiple times, and all at the most ideal locations, from different angels each time), he found us the communal den of spotted hyena, the sleeping lion cubs, the predating cheetah, the leopard mother and cub at eating scene, the whole lion pride, and so much more. Words just fall short. I will attach some photos after I submit the review (I'm still in the photo editing process, so this is definitely not all). I'm already planning to come back during the wet season again for the cubs and a greener background.
The receptionist Mary is also great, she was the one that responded to my initial email with such enthusiasm and careful plannings with all of my requests in mind (not just some template used over and over again), and I am so happy with the itinerary that she helped me putting together. Mary made my initial booking process pleasant and smooth, while Eli wonderfully delivered all the plans and expectations ( and exceed the expectation much much more).
I would def recommend this tour operator and our guide Eli to any close friends, or anyone who is into wildlife viewing and photography.

An unforgettable experience with Kilimanjaro adventure safari club!
Our group of twelve booked a seven-day safari with Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club, and it was nothing short of amazing from start to finish. Organizing a group our size can be challenging, but the team was incredibly accommodating, patient, and flexible with all our needs. This made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable for everyone.
A special shoutout to Mariam, who went above and beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of during our booking. From coordinating logistics to ensuring everything was accounted for. She was responsive, kind, and always helpful.
Our guides, Eli and Denis, were also great throughout then seven day trip. Their professionalism, knowledge of the parks and wildlife, and enthusiasm made every game drive exciting. They had an amazing ability to spot animals, share insights, and keep the group engaged.
The accommodation and food throughout the safari exceeded expectations. Each lodge and camp was comfortable, and offered great hospitality and delicious meals.
Overall, I couldn’t recommend Kilimanjaro Adventure Safari Club enough. The value for the experience was amazing. The combination of outstanding service, friendly staff, and unforgettable experiences made this a trip of a lifetime. Thank you to Mariam, Eli, Denis, the owner, Aenea, and the whole team for making it so special!
